Sorry, I disagree. As far as I can tell, Math 3.1 only included public int log10() public int log10K() so it's not entirely surprising that no-one complained about the return type. If it is still decided to ignore the incompatibilty, please document this clearly in the release notes, and ensure log10K() Javadoc states why it has a different return type from all the others. >> >> Error Method 'protected org.apache.commons.math3.FieldElement[][] >> buildArray(org.apache.commons.math3.Field, int, int)' has been removed >> >> Error Method 'protected org.apache.commons.math3.FieldElement[] >> buildArray(org.apache.commons.math3.Field, int)' has been removed >> org.apache.commons.math3.linear.AbstractFieldMatrix > > I missed these ones.
